Today’s guest is Ralph Tee from Expansion Records. Ralph’s five key tracks takes us on his journey beginning with writing his weekly magazine Groove Weekly, which offended the opposition and how he ended up working for one of them; how promoting dance releases for Arista Records bought him his first BMW and moving to another record label he received his worst criticism of his career. This year Expansion Records celebrates its 35th year as the longest serving independent soul label in the UK.
